Tour Scotland wee video of old photographs of Torrance village in  East Dunbartonshire. The village  is located 8 miles north of the Glasgow city centre. The village was once famous as a resting place for workers on their way to the Campsie Fells. Although weavers were among the earliest residents of the village, limestone, coal and ironstone extraction also began to emerge as a local industry. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day.
